IDC MarketScape Vendor Inclusion Criteria

“This document includes an analysis of 11 major hardcopy equipment manufacturers with broad services and solutions portfolios to specifically address the needs for print and document security on a global scale. The vendor must offer a large portfolio of workgroup-class printing hardware, security, and software/solutions while demonstrating participation in the managed print services (MPS) market (either direct or through indirect channels). Excluded from the study were IT outsourcing companies, business process outsourcing (BPO) providers, and software manufacturers that either offer print and document services as part of their IT services or subcontract these services to hardcopy vendors. Indirect channel partners of hardcopy equipment manufacturers have also been excluded from this study.”
